Kahlon says many private colleges in B.C. use unethical business practices to refuse international students their refunds. He directed her towards Granville College, a private institution in Vancouver she had never heard of before. Sharma says she was promised by Granville that after finishing two semesters, she would be able to transfer to Vancouver Community College, a public institution. But when she inquired with that college, Sharma says she was told that would not be the case.Delaying the withdrawal process
In a statement responding to these allegations, Granville College told CBC News the college has "addressed her concerns and settled this issue amicably." The college accepted her withdrawal, but demanded she pay the remainder of her tuition fees, $9,704.28, citing the enrollment agreement that if she has "taken more than 30 per cent of the course, [she] will be responsible for 100 per cent of the tuition."
The college argued that the "refund calculation was based on the student's last day of attendance, not the date of withdrawal," and that the "calculation of the hours was based on the total scheduled hours from contract start date to the student's last day of attendance." Sonali Sharma alleges that Granville college said they would report her to immigration authorities after she withdrew as a student and asked for a refund.
